Conversation is the only thing that works for us so I try to combine the two: have him shoe me stuff online or look at funny pictures together. It doesn’t always work but I figure it’s better than us being separately face down in our phones
We have a Disney Rubik’s cube that we bought in one of the parks!
This sounds silly, but I was in line in front of a mom with two older teens one time, and they were doing this. It seemed like a bit of tradition for them, they mixed in some other conversation, too. Not sure how it clearly had become a thing they did in lines, but it was clearly a family thing that everyone had bought into. It was entertaining to me to listen to how there was this.natural blending of the game with other conversations. Definitely not the first time they had done this.
Oh yeah, that makes even more sense for portability. I think I was having a ditz moment not to think of that, as someone who reads the Kindle app on my iPad every day. Even a phone could be used for this if you don't mind small print or zooming in.
